+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+X509_NAME_ENTRY_get_object() retrieves the field name of B<ne> in
+and B<ASN1_OBJECT> structure.
+
+X509_NAME_ENTRY_get_data() retrieves the field value of B<ne> in
+and B<ASN1_STRING> structure.
+
+X509_NAME_ENTRY_set_object() sets the field name of B<ne> to B<obj>.
+
+X509_NAME_ENTRY_set_data() sets the field value of B<ne> to string type
+B<type> and value determined by B<bytes> and B<len>.
+
+X509_NAME_ENTRY_create_by_txt(), X509_NAME_ENTRY_create_by_NID()
+and X509_NAME_ENTRY_create_by_OBJ() create and return an 
+B<X509_NAME_ENTRY> structure.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+X509_NAME_ENTRY_get_object() and X509_NAME_ENTRY_get_data() can be
+used to examine an B<X509_NAME_ENTRY> function as returned by 
+X509_NAME_get_entry() for example.
+
+X509_NAME_ENTRY_create_by_txt(), X509_NAME_ENTRY_create_by_NID(),
+and X509_NAME_ENTRY_create_by_OBJ() create and return an 
+
+X509_NAME_ENTRY_create_by_txt(), X509_NAME_ENTRY_create_by_OBJ(),
+X509_NAME_ENTRY_create_by_NID() and X509_NAME_ENTRY_set_data()
+are seldom used in practice because B<X509_NAME_ENTRY> structures
+are almost always part of B<X509_NAME> structures and the
+corresponding B<X509_NAME> functions are typically used to
+create and add new entries in a single operation.
+
+The arguments of these functions support similar options to the similarly
+named ones of the corresponding B<X509_NAME> functions such as
+X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(). So for example B<type> can be set to
+B<MBSTRING_ASC> but in the case of X509_set_data() the field name must be
+set first so the relevant field information can be looked up internally.
